Sad matters :(((<br />I will not write to them - I suspect, it is useless :(((<br />I am now reading your blog slowly and with great sadness...Especially about your desperate attempts to know where is now PEACOCKS PROMENADE.

Embroidered on these pieces were some patterns executed in Cross Stitch using only rust and blue coloured thread."<br /> Is it possible to see them - them or images - in museum or in book?
